Definitions
- the invention relates to a base body for a YIG bandpass filter according to the preamble of claim 1.
- YIG bandpass filters have at least one YIG element, which is preferably spherical and made of yttrium iron garnet (Yttrium-Iron-Garnet YIG).
- the resonator effect is mediated by means of coupling lines.
- a YIG bandpass filter is known, for example, from document US 5,294,899.
- the tunable YIG bandpass filter has a fixed magnetic pole, a rotatable magnetic pole spaced therefrom, an electromagnet for changing the magnetic field between the poles, and a plurality of resonators (YIG elements) coupled together and disposed in the magnetic field between the poles.
- the number of ferrimagnetic resonators is three or more, each with an input and output resonator and at least one intermediate resonator.
- the rotatable magnetic pole is rotated so that the resonators are tuned by the magnetic field between the two magnetic poles to the same resonant frequency.
- a disadvantage of the YIG bandpass filter known from the cited document is, in particular, that eddy currents which limit the tuning speed are induced in the one-piece base body of the YIG bandpass filter by the fast detuning of the frequency-determining magnetic field required, for example, for spectrum analyzers. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a main body for a YIG filter which reduces the induction of the tuning-induced eddy currents in the main body.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic plan view of an embodiment of an inventively designed base body of a YIG bandpass filter.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic plan view of an exemplary embodiment of a YIG bandpass filter 1 which has a main body 2 and, in the exemplary embodiment, four filter chambers 3 formed in the main body 2 with just as many YIG elements 10.
- the filter chambers 3 are connected to each other by slots 4, in which the sake of clarity not shown coupling lines are inserted, which mediate the Resonator Brady between the resonators 10.
- the number of filter chambers 3 is not limited to four, but may be less or more.
- the YIG bandpass filter 1 comprises further components, which are independent of the measures according to the invention and are therefore only shown in an overview.
- Depending on an input and Auskoppelungs réelle 5 are in the embodiment arranged opposite one another in the base body 2.
- Actuators 6 for the YIG elements 10 which allow correct positioning of the four YIG elements 10 in the exemplary embodiment relative to the coupling lines, are present in a corresponding number.
- the YIG elements 10 are mounted on holders 11, which are adjustable by the adjusting devices 6 in their position relative to the coupling lines, not shown.
- the filter effect of a YIG bandpass filter 1 is based on the coupling of the resonators 10, which allow resonance at an energy transfer from the coupling to the decoupling, but prevent it outside the resonance.
- the operating frequency of the YIG bandpass filter 1 is determined essentially by the strength of the applied magnetic field.
- the YIG elements 10 are located in the base body 2 in an air gap of an electromagnet.
- the base body 2 is preferably made of a solid non-magnetic metal. This has the advantage of a simple mechanical workability, but, as already mentioned above, the disadvantage of the inducibility of eddy currents.
- the metallic base body 2 serves to decouple the individual YIG filter stages by conducting surfaces which are as closed as possible.
- the eddy currents produce a magnetic field opposing the original magnetic field and thereby limit the tuning speed.
- eddy currents in the area of the filter chambers 3 are particularly important because they directly disturb the frequency-determining field at the location of the YIG elements 10.
- the main body 2 recesses 7 and connected to these slots 8, which the suppression of the rapid alphastiinmen the YIG bandpass filter 1 in the main body 2 induced eddy currents are used.
- the outer recesses 7 are arranged radially outside the filter chambers 3.
- the slots 8 extend radially outward between the filter chambers 3.
- the recesses 7 have a round, rounded or slot-shaped cross-section.
- the outer recesses 7 and the associated slots 8 are formed in the base body 2, that an interruption of the eddy currents, in particular in the vicinity of the YIG elements 10 is possible.
- the outer recesses 7 and the slots 8 intersect in an inner region.
- a further inner recess 9, which is formed cross-shaped in the embodiment, is provided to reduce the eddy currents in the radially inner region of the base body 2.
- the outer recesses 7 and the inner recess 9 and the slots 8 are introduced in full axial extent of the base body 2 in this, in order to allow a good suppression of the eddy current.
- the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment and suitable for any configured YIG bandpass filter 1.
- the individual features can be combined with each other as desired.
